Fit Signature Exposures with Linear Combination Decomposition

Description

The function performs a signatures decomposition of a given mutational catalogue V with known signatures W by solving the minimization problem ⁠min(||W*H - V||)⁠ where W and V are known.

Usage

sig_fit(
  catalogue_matrix,
  sig,
  sig_index = NULL,
  sig_db = c("legacy", "SBS", "DBS", "ID", "TSB", "SBS_Nik_lab", "RS_Nik_lab",

Arguments

`catalogue_matrix`	a numeric matrix `V` with row representing components and columns representing samples, typically you can get `nmf_matrix` from `sig_tally()` and transpose it by `t()`.
`sig`	a `Signature` object obtained either from sig_extract or sig_auto_extract, or just a raw signature matrix/`data.frame` with row representing components (motifs) and column representing signatures.
`sig_index`	a vector for signature index. "ALL" for all signatures.
`sig_db`	default 'legacy', it can be 'legacy' (for COSMIC v2 'SBS'), 'SBS', 'DBS', 'ID' and 'TSB' (for COSMIV v3.1 signatures) for small scale mutations. For more specific details, it can also be 'SBS_hg19', 'SBS_hg38', 'SBS_mm9', 'SBS_mm10', 'DBS_hg19', 'DBS_hg38', 'DBS_mm9', 'DBS_mm10' to use COSMIC v3 reference signatures from Alexandrov, Ludmil B., et al. (2020) (reference #1). In addition, it can be one of "SBS_Nik_lab_Organ", "RS_Nik_lab_Organ", "SBS_Nik_lab", "RS_Nik_lab" to refer reference signatures from Degasperi, Andrea, et al. (2020) (reference #2); "RS_BRCA560", "RS_USARC" to reference signatures from BRCA560 and USARC cohorts; "CNS_USARC" (40 categories), "CNS_TCGA" (48 categories) to reference copy number signatures from USARC cohort and TCGA; "CNS_TCGA176" (176 categories) and "CNS_PCAWG176" (176 categories) to reference copy number signatures from PCAWG and TCGA separately. UPDATE, the latest version of reference version can be automatically downloaded and loaded from https://cancer.sanger.ac.uk/signatures/downloads/ when a option with `latest_` prefix is specified (e.g. "latest_SBS_GRCh37"). Note: the signature profile for different genome builds are basically same. And specific database (e.g. 'SBS_mm10') contains less signatures than all COSMIC signatures (because some signatures are not detected from Alexandrov, Ludmil B., et al. (2020)). For all available options, check the parameter setting.
`db_type`	only used when `sig_db` is enabled. "" for keeping default, "human-exome" for transforming to exome frequency of component, and "human-genome" for transforming to whole genome frequency of component. Currently only works for 'SBS'.
`show_index`	if `TRUE`, show valid indices.
`method`	method to solve the minimazation problem. 'NNLS' for non-negative least square; 'QP' for quadratic programming; 'SA' for simulated annealing.
`auto_reduce`	if `TRUE`, try reducing the input reference signatures to increase the cosine similarity of reconstructed profile to observed profile.
`type`	'absolute' for signature exposure and 'relative' for signature relative exposure.
`return_class`	string, 'matrix' or 'data.table'.
`return_error`	if `TRUE`, also return sample error (Frobenius norm) and cosine similarity between observed sample profile (asa. spectrum) and reconstructed profile. NOTE: it is better to obtain the error when the type is 'absolute', because the error is affected by relative exposure accuracy.
`rel_threshold`	numeric vector, a signature with relative exposure lower than (equal is included, i.e. `<=`) this value will be set to 0 (both absolute exposure and relative exposure). In this case, sum of signature contribution may not equal to 1.
`mode`	signature type for plotting, now supports 'copynumber', 'SBS', 'DBS', 'ID' and 'RS' (genome rearrangement signature).
`true_catalog`	used by sig_fit_bootstrap, user never use it.
`...`	control parameters passing to argument `control` in `GenSA` function when use method 'SA'.

Details

The method 'NNLS' solves the minimization problem with nonnegative least-squares constraints. The method 'QP' and 'SA' are modified from SignatureEstimation package. See references for details. Of note, when fitting exposures for copy number signatures, only components of feature CN is used.

Value

The exposure result either in matrix or data.table format. If return_error set TRUE, a list is returned.
